Vigilant Violet Eyes Marked With An X
#1 of Pedro Art and Adventures
We're now at the point in my backlog where I can introduce my Pokesona to here. Back in November of 2020 I commissioned art of him but waited till I finished his backstory to share it, that wasn't done until January and I decided to make it a poem instead of a full story. The art of the thumbnail was made by @ChocolateQuill on Twitter. Pokémon and all things associated with it are owned and copyrighted by Nintendo. Art originally done and posted December 2020, Poem originally written and posted January 2021.

Vigilant Violet Eyes Marked With An X
By: A.X. Bueno
In a faraway region there lives a violet eyed Marowak
Pedro is his name
He has an X shaped scar over his left eye and a graveyard he has reclaimed
He inherited it from his late mother and he guards it well with vigilance and almost no fear
It's a job that he takes very seriously
Anybody who's seen him work will say that that fact is quite clear
Many a Marowak abandoned that so called "too old-fashioned role"
Still he does his job with pride
And with the way his world is it never becomes droll
He protects the graveyard from ghosts and other types of Pokémon most mean
He also cleans the graveyard of leaves and garbage
All while wearing a navy blue scarf he does his best to keep incredibly clean
With his vigilant violet eyes he keeps watch over it all
Of course he also has a couple of helpers that he shares guard shifts with and that he can call
Usually though his strong move set is enough that he has no real need for help
It consists of moves such as skull bash and ancient power and two more
Gained from his mother and father early on
A female Marowak and a male Charizard
Both of whom for him are long gone
He naturally got a lot from his kin
Though the most interesting thing he got, from his father, is fiery red skin
Skin that's an almost perfect match for a Charmeleon's
His unique looks for a Marowak makes him a bit of an outcast but he's fine with it that way
He does have friends but usually prefers to just sit in the graveyard and relax watching the trees sway
Of course even then he'll stay vigilant and keep watch with his violet eyes
Or sometimes he'll even leave the graveyard and go exploring or simply gaze at the night sky
It really depends on his mood
For instance sometimes he'll go looking for battle when he feels a rough change in attitude
Though he can usually find all this while staying around the graveyard he protects and calls home
He's just looking with his violet eyes, one X scarred for his own way through life
And to protect the graveyard he'd inherited the guardianship of and made his own comfort zone
